This plugin has almost totally been reworked. This adds many new features and options, and fixes. Its also taken alot of testing to get it all right.

This doesn't change the number of players in your server.
(This is not a fake clients plugin)

If your server is empty, this plugin will fill it with intelligent bots until only X slots are free.

This plugin removes the cheat flag of the nav_generate command.

1. Bots Vs Humans(bVh) - It's players against bots! Teams are allowed to get unbalanced (usually in the favor of bots)
2. Bot Handicap.
   • Bots in normal mode have a static reduced damage and increased damage
   • In bVh bots have dynamic handicap based on more player or more bots
   • This is all handled by configs.
3. Integration with the Admin menu (requires server restart or "sm plugins reload adminmenu" command)
   
4. Rock the Bot - Allows users to Rock the Bot(toggle) the current bVh mode. Just say one of the following in chat
   • rtb
   • rockthebot
5. BotMan Options - Allows each client to config showing or disabling of BotMan Messages. Just say the following in chat
   • bmoptions
6. Bot Kick - [#/red/blue/name/all] New options for using Bot kick
7. sm_bm_version now properly notifies

sm_bm_enabled "1" [1/0] Enable/Disable Bot Manager", FCVAR_PLUGIN, true, 0.0, true, 1.0);
sm_bm_slotsfree "1" - How many slots the bots should not use (Doesn't count reserved slots)
sm_bm_supressevents "1" - [0/1] Supresss Bot Connect/Disconnect Messages, and Team Change in BotVsHuman

sm_bm_damage_delt "-1.0" - Amount to increase damage delt(to humans) by(1.2 = +20%) from bots(-1 to disable)
sm_bm_damage_received_inc "0.05" - Damage Received Unbalance Increment(adjust damage)
sm_bm_damage_delt_inc "0.0" - Damage Delt Unbalance Increment(adjust damage)
sm_bm_bvh_enabled "0" - [1/0] Enable/Disable Bots Vs Humans by default for a round

sm_bm_rtb_limit "0.60" - % required for sucessful RTB vote

sm_bm_cmd_bot_kick "1" - [1/0] Enable/Disable Kicking Manualy added bots to keep 1 slot free


Required Access
ADMFLAG_GENERIC

The plugin now requires SDK_Hooks so a compiled version is available. This plugin also uses clientprefs

Thanks a lot for Kilandor, he updated the plugin
Thanks for FoxMulder for various fixes and the admin menu.

"intelligent bots"? So they don't just sit in spawn?

The bots are semi-intelligent on koth_viaduct, koth_sawmill, and koth_nucleus.

But does it work at all on maps like 2fort?

Not yet. Bots are still in beta for TF2 and by design (Valve) only work on those maps. They don't yet have the knowledge to deal with other scenarios like attack/defend, push the cart, get the flag... etc.

With a few console commands you can add them to other maps but they wont go for the objective, i.e non intelligent.

I've tested this on each of the three maps and it works great from just loading and unloading the plugin; however, could there be a cvar added to limit how many bots join because at this point it just fills up the server and for some reason causes way too much lag. I've messed with the slot cvar but no matter what number I use it still fills up the server. I've also tried this on non related maps and they do just sit in spawn of course, but if you shoot them they will shoot back! This is great if you want to leave a few in open spawn areas to get rid of some campers... lol

Anyways great to see a plugin like this. Good job!

I'd suggesting adjusting the plugin so that it does not allow bots on maps other than the KOTH maps for now.

I created a nav file for a cp_orange_x3_* map and tested it for alittle over 2 hours and they seem to be working alright with it.

The sm_bm_slotsfree var works fine for me. I set it to 18 for example on my 26 slot server and no more than 8 bots will join. When a real player connects, a bot gets dropped.

Nice work
